// OOC. Poetry is about literary devices and rhythm. It is what differs it from prose, though it can happen prose can be "poetic" using same devices. The presence or not of such devices is not the only things which actually -makes- poetry. An aware absence of them, a willing renounce to use effect such as rhyme, allitteration, or whatever, is also part of poetry. But of course there are some of these things to be considered, not to mismatch poetry with prose written with a different text format.
